Logan's Run Motion Picture Production
Information

Early Motion Picture Synopsis! You will
ove the new ending in which the "Old Man" drives up the City
of Domes in the beat up Rolls Royce! This was later changed
to a horse drawn cart in pre-production art then droped in
favor of just walking there.

This article is, I think, from the Dallas
Times Herald. I do not know the date. It talks mostly about
Saul David and the production of the motion picture. The
most interesting bit comes at the end where he talks about
the disolving body effect and how it came about. Interesting
reading all around though.

Another press release telling of the
upcoming use of the World trade Center and other Texas
locations. Not entirely accurate. After communicating with
the texas Film Comission it turns out that they applied for
permits all over, then actually used very few of them.

A memo listing proposed locatons. Hand
annotated with notes about visiting the sets years later.
Many of these locations were never used. If you are
interested in the various locations used please visit the

Only beautiful People Need Apply Article by Patty Moore
talking about the local extra used in the production of the
movie. For their talents and looks they got $2.15 per hour
working on the set.

Movie 'extra' worried what mother will thinkAn extra in the Love Shop sequence worries
what his mother will think when she sees the motion picture.
Also mentions Adrian McKnight who is they guy outside of the
New You Shop who has a few lines but was cut form the movie.

An Extras Life Is Filled With BoredomInteresting look at casting practices for
the Love Shop sequence. Even more interesting for the fact
that sometimes they were not given any direction as to what
was going to happen. When they were hearded into the great
hall and Michael York comes out ot make his speech about
"You don't have to go in there" they all applauded at the
end not realizing they were on camera.

Althought not production documents
William F. Nolan wrote a series of articles dealing with
Logan's Run This one was dated September 16th 1976. These
articles evolved into a column called Running With Logan
which ran in the Logan's
Run Orginazation of Fans (LROoF)
newsletter The Circuit. Read moe of them on that page!

promote the film was this double folded brochure. The
brochure is reporduced here for your enjoyment. The narative
in the brochure is especialy interesting as it does not seem
quite sure where it is leading to. The picture of the inside
and the back are larger so the text can be readable. Follow

coleciton of Dave Jackson! Thank you Dave!

2-24-02 Progress Report #3I am unclar who this "Progress
Report" was aimed at. It is filled with cippings about the
production. Most of them seem to be accounts of the movie's
production, holograms, and costumes. It may have been
distributed to US theaters before the premier, or it could
have been aimed at oversease theater owners as it lists a
film distributor other than UA. If you want a file large
enough to read all the individual articles please
e-mail me and I will add it to my list of things to do.

2-24-02 Preview Comment Card form the
Advance ScreeningAt the advance preview screeing
MGM handed out comment cards so that the audience could leve
their thoughts abotu the movie. As an optin participants
were also asked for demographic infomration. This was a card
not turned in at that screening. I often wonder when looking
at if my comments would have made a difference. What if we
could all travel back in time and pack the theater with
logan fans?

6-23-02In
1981 Saul David published his autobiography The Industry. To
celebrate the 25th birthday of the film, here is the section
dealing with Censorship and the Love Shop sequence! Be
warned that it deals with some rather loathsome language
coming from the mouths of the censors! ; ) 1, 2, 3, 4, 5,

2-24-02 Your Life SymbolAt selected cities across the
country these life symbol cards were handed out on opening
day. This was printed on red sticker paper with a pre cut
hole in the middle which you would peal off and wear in the
palm of your hand.

If you went to opening day in selected cities you
were rewarded by being given your very own 'life symbol' in
the form of this removable tatoo. They only came in one
color: Grapefruit! Sort of an interesting collectable.
